    Advice needed for Kindergartens and Primary schools

    I need more info for applying for schools and I wish to get more feedback/comment on the following:

    ESF vs Kellett for Kindergarten and primary - what are the pros and cons (other than that Kellett only provides for children up to 13 years old)

    Kellett vs GSIS English stream for Kindergarten and primary - what are the pros and cons?

    Kellett vs FIS International Stream for kindergarten and primary? - what are the pros and cons?

    My guy was at ESF Kingergarten and now at an ESF Primary school.
    In terms of curriculum I think there is very little difference. The class sizes are probably smaller at Kellet. I haven't been to Kellet so can't comment on the facilities. I heard from a friend who's daughter is now at Kellet that the school plans on adding a new Year gradually. And hopefully by the time her child turns 13 the secondary school will be ready. Previously, Kellet kids were sent to Boarding School at 13 or transfered to an ESF secondary school. The school should have some stats on what the current trend is and where kids are going.
